Steve Jobs promoted the device as the thinnest smartphone in the world it was the last iphone to release before Jobs death featuring a new stainless steel frame the frame also acted as the device's antenna this was the first iPhone to feature a 32 gigabyte storage option Apple debuted their high resolution Retina Display while keeping the iPhone 4 the same size as the previous generations on top of that the iPhone 4 introduced FaceTime multitasking and featured the first front-facing camera say hello to selfies next up was the iPhone 4S the phone was officially announced at Apple's Cupertino campus the day before Steve Jobs passed away in October 2011 marketed as the most amazing iPhone yet this time the S in iPhone 4S did not stand for Speed rather it stood for the virtual assistant known as Siri while the exterior was mostly unchanged from the iPhone 4 the internals received a major upgrade this included an upgraded chipset and an 8 megapixel camera that supported 1080p HD video along with the 4S came iOS 5 bringing a whole assortment of new features this included Twitter integration the notification center reminders iMessage and iCloud 2012 saw the release of the iPhone 5 which was the last iphone to be overseen by Steve Jobs development would shift to fall under Tim Cook's leadership who had become the new Apple CEO the iPhone 5 wasn't just thinner and lighter than previous iPhones it was also taller the taller screen allowed for a whole extra row of apps to be seen on the screen it also gave rise to a bunch of internet memes poking fun at the expanding size of the iPhone both LTE network support and the lightning dock were introduced on the iPhone 5.
The 5 was very important in iPhone's history partly due to its 64 gigabytes of storage but it was quickly replaced by the iPhone 5c only a year later replacing the aluminum design of the five the 5c instead featured a hard-coated plastic the C in iPhone 5c stood for color referring to the many different color options the foam was available in that played a major role in Apple's marketing campaign but another thing that made the 5c attractive was that it was cheaper than that Year's iPhone 5s yes the 5S the 2013 Update to the iPhone introduced the fingerprint recognition system Touch ID with Touch ID iPhone users could unlock their phone and authorize purchases without entering a password a new iOS update iOS 7 also coincided with the release of the 5S it drastically changed the on-screen visual design of the iPhone and added airdrop functionality and the iPhone control center 2014's I iPhone 6 and 6 Plus doubled the possible storage capacity to 128 gigabytes improve the processor cameras Wi-Fi and LTE connectivity and featured larger displays a major problem with the six and six plus models was that they were easy to bend the phones were structurally weaker than ever before and with enough pressure would bend out of shape despite only minor improvements and the bending issues the iPhone 6 still became the best selling iPhone of all time and not just the best selling iPhone but the best-selling smartphone of all time in 2015 the iPhone 6s and 6s plus released with a chassis made from a strong aluminum alloy the 2015 iPhones also brought a new 12 megapixel camera capable of recording 4K video at 30 frames per second this camera allowed for dynamic live photos recording one and a half seconds before and after you took a picture apple removed the headphone jack with the following Year's iPhones the iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 plus users now had to rely on either Bluetooth wireless headphones or wired headphones that plugged into the charging port people were not happy Ben Apple claimed that the world was heading towards a wireless future now it seems like almost everyone is wearing wireless headphones or earbuds Apple wasn't wrong about the future but it was a future that they helped create more positively received changes included the static home button another jump in storage capacity to 256 gigabytes and water and dust resistance water resistance however did not mean the foam was waterproof iPhones were not meant to be purposely thrown into your swimming pool exclusive to the iPhone 7 plus was an additional telephoto lens which supported portrait mode and enhanced optical zoom unfortunately these features were not available on the regular iPhone 7.
As expected 2017's iPhone 8 and 8 plus improved the cameras displays and processor it also added a glass back to the phone but there wasn't all that much new with the phone the most notable new feature was wireless charging integration with a wireless charger all you had to do was place the back of your iPhone on a charging pad this gave users an alternative to the traditional method of plugging a cable in the charging port the iPhone 8 line was the last to use home buttons and touch ID home buttons were gone with the iPhone x which launched only a couple months after the 8 and 8 plus in 2017. wait a minute did we just go from iPhone 8 to the iPhone x but X is the Roman numeral for 10.
that's right there was never an iPhone 9. Apple skipped right over the number nine just like how Microsoft went directly from Windows 8 to Windows 10. the iPhone x was meant to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the iPhone it was a premium option phone featuring a higher price point and the iPhone's first OLED screen when it first launched the iPhone X cost a thousand dollars in the United States it was the most expensive iPhone ever as the first iPhone to ditch the home button the iPhone x replaced Touch ID with face ID the phones could be unlocked by scanning people's faces face iD Tech burst animojis a way for users to use animated emojis matching their own Expressions iPhones were becoming more expensive and numerous and that continued with new additions to the x-line in 2018 the XR Xs and Xs Max where similar phones while having few differences the XR lacked several features from the Xs and Xs Max like not having 3D touch using an LCD display instead of OLED no HDR and a less powerful camera for those who didn't care about those features the XR was the way to go but if they wanted them they needed to get the iPhone Xs and for another 100 bucks they could get the larger screen with the iPhone XS Max after using Roman numerals with the iPhone x line Apple reverted to the traditional numerals with iPhone 11.
In 2019 Apple offered several variants of the iPhone 11 including the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max changes from the previous iPhone to the 11 were minimal the 11 used a more powerful chip and Ultra wide dual camera the pro and Pro Max versions included a triple lens rear camera and became the first iPhones to have Pro in their name these two versions were also the first to have the possibility of 512 gigs of storage previously Apple had only used the pro designation with their iPads and MacBooks 2020 was a year like no other the pandemic changed the world economy causing a major recession that is still going on today despite the unprecedented Global impact Apple experienced a sales boost on their iPads Macs and iPhones with people spending more time indoors than ever before people needed something to keep them occupied Zoom FaceTime Tick Tock YouTube video games remote work people were always online this likely pushed iPhone sales Beyond initial expectations the iPhones released in 2020 were the iPhone 12 12 mini 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max iPhone 12 added the super retina xdro LED display magsafe charging tech support for 4K HDR video in Dolby Vision at 30 frames per second and 5G support for another two hundred dollars the iPhone 12 Pro offered a build using more premium materials and a better rear camera with these these iPhones Apple stopped including both ear pods and a wall adapter the company claimed that this was to reduce their carbon footprint but many also viewed this as Apple trying to sell essential accessories separately in 2021 Apple improved battery life cameras and chipsets with the iPhone 13.
Of course as expected Apple offered mini pro and pro Max versions as well only the iPhone 13 Pro Models featured one terabyte of storage and a faster more responsive 120 hertz display with the regular 13 and 13 mini stuck with 60 hertz Apple has fallen behind their competitors on this front as Samsung has featured a 120 hertz refresh rate on their phones since early 2020 in any case an Apple fan is an Apple fan and will probably always stick to the one that started it all the iPhone thanks for watching what's your favorite iPhone let us know in the comment section down below and go go ahead and check out another video
